Re: [PATCH 4.19 425/425] scripts: switch explicitly to Python 3

Hi!

From: Andy Shevchenko andriy.shevchenko@linux.intel.com

commit 51839e29cb5954470ea4db7236ef8c3d77a6e0bb upstream.

Some distributions are about to switch to Python 3 support only. This means that /usr/bin/python, which is Python 2, is not available anymore. Hence, switch scripts to use Python 3 explicitly.

I'd say this is unsuitable for -stable.

Old distributions may not have python3 installed, and we should not change this dependency in the middle of the series.

Python is not listed in Documentation/Changes . Perhaps it should be?

Best regards, Pavel
